Google Maps
just noticed that Google Maps still identifies the UNO East Campus (the part from Franklin to the Industrial Canal, more or less) as "Camp Leroy Johnson." It was an army base by that name until the 1960s. I remember going through the unmanned security gates at the Franklin Ave. entrance with my dad as a kid.
Google Maps also identifies the traffic circle at the end of Elysian Fields Ave. by the lake as "Pontchartrain Beach." :-)
